It's Christmas in July for Amazon Prime members! Each year, the ubiquitous e-commerce site offers two days of "epic deals," according to Amazon. This year, Prime Day is July 12 and 13. What started as a small way to celebrate Amazon Prime members has grown into a full-scale shopping with thousands of products on sale throughout the annual event.
These sales create a unique opportunity for churches and ministries as you work to find cost-effective solutions to technology needs. Whether it's purchasing new equipment, replacing broken or outdated technology, trying to spice up the break room from 1973, or just wanting to up your personal tech game, there is likely something that your ministry will want to purchase today or tomorrow.
This is our roundup of 20 of the best Amazon Prime Day deals for church communicators. We'll try to keep this list updated as much as possible—remember deals can start, end, or change at any point during the deal event. If you find a Prime Day deal you think other communicators might be interested in, head to our Facebook group and share it!
